Started with protests in Daraa in 2011, the Syrian conflict rapidly turned into a war with a number of foreign powers supporting various militant groups (including al-Qaeda-linked) against the government of Bashar al-Assad. Since then, the country has been a point of instability in the Middle East.Russia began a military intervention in Syria in 2015 after an official request by the Syrian government for military help against militant groups.This allowed the Syrian government to survive and to regain initiative in a battle against Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (formerly Jabhat al-Nusra, the Syrian branch of al-Qaeda), ISIS and other militant groups.

On May 24, multiple reports appeared about US and Israeli strikes on the government forces’ targets in Syria.

Initially, the Syrian state-run media and the Hezbollah media wing in Syria claimed that the US-led coalition’s warplanes had carried out strikes on government forces near the T2 pumping station, al-Bukamal and al-Mayadin. The US-led coalition denied these reports. Later, the Russian state-run media citing some Russian military sources said that no airstrikes by the US-led coalition had hit government forces.
